Indie Untangled and Wool & Folk :: Rhinebeck Weekend 2023 Part 1 🧶🐑

Hello Makers! Today I take you along as I attend Indie Untangled and Wool & Folk, both in upstate New York. These events took place on October 20th and kicked off what is affectionally known as ‘Rhinebeck Weekend’ which culminates with the New York Sheep & Wool Festival in Rhinebeck, NY. That festival will be covered in part 2 of this special travel vlog series!

As a crafter who can't get out much and has no crafting buddies around, it's truly delightful to see you two together enjoying some yarny fellowship! Thank you for sharing - it almost feels like being there with you to enjoy the good stuff 😀🎉 but without having to struggle through the adverse conditions. 🌧️😮‍💨

[@sherryzimmerman9220]

LOVED LOVED LOVED the “Candy Store of Galore”….postcard parade of your grand adventures in fibers…. what an amazing world full of friendships…. designs…. peoples putting out their best gifts to the world….

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thanks, Sherry! Love the idea of a postcard parade - feels very much like that!

[@daylemenges7177]

I'm so glad to find you here. I follow you on Instagram, but never realized you had a YT channel until Denise mentioned it in her blog. Thank you for being honest but still kind and gracious. I can see why you and Denise are such good friends. You both seem to have a genuine kindness about you and that is so nice to find since many use social media as an opportunity to be negative and condescending.

[@ScrappinwithSabrina]

So fun to see you and Denise together and having a fabulous time! What an amazing experience.

[@constancegarcia8053]

With the colorful bundle of yarn. A striped tee would look beautiful in all the wonderful colors.❤ Thank you for your Vlog.😊

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thank you!

[@debbieraby]

We here in Portland OR are so excited about Sacred Sheep. I hope I see you there!

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Oh yay! Hope to see you soon!

[@Allsmilesgirl277]

Seeing you and Denise together brings me SO MUCH JOY! You’re both so soothing and peaceful to watch, so it just makes sense that you’re besties!❤ Great recap, I watched while working out of my new sock size “‘Tis the season to be basic” bag from you that arrived this week.❤❤❤

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Oh so happy you enjoyed it! 😁 And yay for the bag arriving! Happy knitting!

[@constancegarcia8053]

Just a thought, your Logo would look gorgeous on a large sweater bag, as well Stitching The High Notes pin would be great new items in your shop. ❤🎉

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Great idea!

[@abbynormal4740]

💯 agree that the logo would be awesome for a large project tote! I can see using it not just for crochet, but also my hand quilting, cross stitch and bead weaving projects (and even knitting if I ever get beyond basic casting on and garter stitch lol 😄).

[@dragonhoardyarnpodcast8810]

It was absolutely magical getting you see you again! Even if it was in VERY close quarters and only for brief moments. ❤ it’s always an absolute joy to spend time with you.

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

It was SO GOOD TO SEE YOU! I hope we can again soon!

[@ericallerton809]

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thanks, Elaine!

[@rickle28]

I am new to your channel and just subscribed! I have heard about Rhinebeck but have had a hard time finding a good video really showcasing it and I have to say I want to go now! Thank you!!

[@heathertucker7056]

Always love a visit to yarn shows! Always inspiring!

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

🥰🧶

[@ursulamanwiller5630]

I enjoyed your vlog Thanks for taking me along

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

You are most welcome! 🤗

[@RemedyFibers]

This was so fun to watch!! I love the rainy scenary and I need that Knit Coffee in my life. How fun!!

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thanks! And oh my goodness the coffee is good. I brewed my first cup yesterday!

[@treehousefiberarts2694]

So fun to be with you and Denise! I remember driving around with Denise on my very first trip to Rhinebeck :) She IS a very good driver lol :)

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

She really is! So grateful! Hope we can all go next year or to another festival together!

[@anneellison8188]

Great first travel blog! I've been looking forward to your festival reviews. I follow both and Denise so its great to see you together! And I do love pins a lot but I love stickers more!

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thank you! And noted on the pins and stickers!

[@sweetsar04]

Wonderful travel vlog!! ❤ thank you for making it and sharing your treasured finds.

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it!

[@joannek6805]

Enjoyed your recap of the two fiber events! Looking forward to part 2. A nice pattern suitable for your Beautiful mini skein set would be the Land of Sweets cowl by Helen Stewart. It’s a fun knit and would show off each of those gorgeous colors with interesting texture patterns for each different stripe. 🌈💕

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thanks! And ooh that is a good idea - I believe I own that pattern!

[@janemellowes674]

So agree about needing space at yarn events. Thanks for sharing your trip. Looking forward to Rhinebeck video, I’m in the UK so not sure I’ll ever make it in person. 😊

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

You are most welcome!

[@ramonafirehorse]

Love seeing you two together! ❤

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

It's pure joy!

[@thizizliz]

I love that people are sharing the names of the vendors who actually lost money due to the layout limiting sales. They are urging us to order from as many of them as we can. Hopefully the organizers will learn from their mistakes and do way better next year. Doesn't it seem that the fiber community is so much more active on the East Coast? We live in the High Desert of So Cal and the nearest yarn store is an hour away. I'd love to have a place to knit and visit and squish the wool! Your vlogs make me feel less alone. I'm so sorry that Wool & Folk was a bust but am glad you found some non people time to recharge.

[@dragonhoardyarnpodcast8810]

Come to the Great Basin Fiber Arts Fair in Utah! 🎉 it’s smaller, but we always have such a fantastic time. And it’s right next to SLC, which has a beautiful arts district and lots of amazing restaurants and events. ❤

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Me too on sharing of the vendors! I've added the list of vendors to the description here and part 2 and also shared it on Instagram last week. And I think the fiber community is active everywhere! Plus smaller, local festivals are gaining more popularity, which is very exciting! 🥳

[@thizizliz]

@@StitchingtheHighNotes Oh cool. I'm hoping to meet some local knitters but so far, no luck. Our nearest LYS is in Big Bear; an hour away. Also one in Beaumont, just as far but the woman in Big Bear is really nice so I'll stick with her.

[@KKITTYKAT53]

Loved your video

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thanks!

[@stephanietisdelbutler614]

I loved the vlog! Can't wait to see part 2!

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thanks! It's uploading now! 🥳

[@jamiethrogmorton2540]

Forget about people walking by, feeling awkward in your own car. Not to worry! ❤

[@juliehertel21]

On you bundle if mini's... have you thought about a striped cardigan, using those and a skein or two of a neutral? I think it would showcase the gorgeous minis

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Ooh good idea! I might have to pair it with another 1 or 2 skeins but love that idea!

[@crazyboutknitting]

You are so amazing thank you

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Thanks!! And you are most welcome!

[@maryannestoner4065]

Thanks for sharing your experience. Do you happen to know what pattern the shrug with the shawl collar you looked at at Indie Untangled?

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

You are most welcome! And I don't believe I do remember, sorry!

[@mannabee240]

I am excited to hear about a festival in Portland Oregon. I grew up in the Willamette Valley. How do I find events and wool sources close to where I live now? I would love to buy some local fiber. I have dreams of learning to spin

[@StitchingtheHighNotes]

Ooh that is a good question. I did a bit of research and asked around and I think unfortunately the best way is a good ole google search at the moment for the most up to date information.
